About this audiobook
The Koru of Times is a sweeping, multi-generational saga set in Aotearoa and beyond, tracing a Māori family’s journey through love, loss, and resilience. From warrior Amiri and Hahana’s tragic legacy to Manaia’s survival, Waiora’s quest to reclaim ancestors’ remains, and Hinewai’s flight to London, the family weaves Māori heritage into global history. Through war, injustice, and cultural exchange, their descendants preserve identity, art, and honour. In the present, Eva and her great-grandchildren continue this legacy, embodying hope, justice, and renewal across generations.
